Caleb- I'm not sure you know how much labor is involved with this..I was able to get the stuff off in a lot less mainly because the axle was out of the car and I just cut stuff out of the way that I had to move because it was on the old car. But because they can't do that on his car obviously it would take longer. There is a lot of labor in removing all the drum hardware, pulling the axles, remaking the hard lines ect..

But I honestly I think 6 hours was a little much..but I would rather pay a little more and have it done right than have them hurry and get a half-assed job.

2 hours!! WTF?

I can see two hours if you had done it 10 times previously and knew exactly what tools you would need and it was a car that was off the showroom so that nothing was corroded or rusty, and you had the hard lines prebent- then MAYBE...
